Media personality, Ifedayo Olarinde aka Daddy Freeze has argued that voting, not artistes’ performances at political events, will determine the results of the upcoming elections.
This is as Nigerians prepare for the upcoming 2023 elections.
In his post, he has encouraged his colleagues in the entertainment industry to render services to political aspirants without fear of criticism from the public.
“PVC and voting are what guarantee election victory, not artiste performance,” he wrote.
“Also, remember that if you don’t want to be a hypocrite, don’t clamp down on artistes alone, remember to include caterers, event venue owners, drink suppliers, ushers, security personnel, etc, at the events.
”Daddy Freeze also declared his intention to interview political leaders who intend to use his services or platform for a fee.
He further advised artistes to reject “emotional blackmail”, but remember to carry out their job “as professionally as possible.”
“Interviewing a candidate or performing at an event is different from endorsement, know the difference. Earn your pay, Nigeria is already hard enough!” He said.
